Another Black White And Red Cupcakes

I guess Black White and Red is a popular color combination. So my cousin's niece (or is it my cousin's cousin? we're related somehow but not sure how ;)) wanted to order cupcakes for her 25th birthday. It was a really last minute order but since I have time, I accept the order. 

Anyway, what's interesting with this order was, she wanted some of the cupcakes to have black frosting. Usually when people requested black, I'll recommend using chocolate ganache instead. So, as requested, I made black Swiss meringue buttercream for the topping. The texture is lighter than the normal buttercream because of the meringue (egg-white and sugar combination). I keep adding the color because it won't become black. Just dark gray. Afraid of having a foul tasted frosting, I kept back from adding the whole bottle of charcoal black and settled with the dark gray.

Wedding Cupcakes - Pink Roses And Purple Lace

This is the most recent wedding gives cupcakes (hantaran perkahwinan) that we made. We are actually quite proud of it. The order was made base on a picture given by the customer. She wanted purple lace as the base and topped with pink roses. It was not a perfect copy of the original design since we don't feel too good being a copycat ;P Centerpiece was made using 4 cupcakes gathered under the larger fondant lace and surrounded with single cupcakes.
